About

Ms. Stephan will discuss findings from her three case studies on national movements for self-determination (Palestinian, Kosovo Albanian, East Timorese) where peoples fought against states using active nonviolent resistance.  Her focus will be on the potential and pitfalls of nonviolent struggle in conflicts over territory. Nonviolent struggle, according to her argument, is a form of asymmetric warfare that is subject to many of the same limits and constraints as armed warfare.
